Satchel Paige’s Six Rules for Staying Young | Birmingham News
Description
Satchel Paige, baseball’s legendary pitcher born somewhere between 1901 and 1909, lived longer than his birth certificate ever claimed—thanks to his famous “Six Rules for Staying Young,” which included avoiding fried food, resting when sick, and never looking back. A trailblazer who broke into the American League at 42 and kept pitching into his 50s, Paige’s career was redefined when MLB officially recognized the Negro Leagues, pushing his debut back to 1927. With a career spanning nearly 40 years and revered by icons like DiMaggio and Williams, Paige’s legacy endures as both a pitching legend and a timeless sage on longevity.
